A pixie-infested farmhouse. A pain-in-the-butt familiar. A hunky lumberjack shifter. Not at all what a witch on the run like me expects to find in small-town Redbud, Indiana, but life’s been throwing me a bunch of curveballs lately. Most recently? Discovering a demonic curse on the family grimoire sucking the magic straight out of my coven’s hearts. 10 out of 10 do not recommend, and there’s only one thing an uninitiated witch like me can do.

My grandmother taught me that magic is like baking: it's all about intention. As a fire witch, I pour my heart into every loaf of bread, every comfort scone.

But during renovations, we didn't just find asbestos; we found a skeleton clutching a scorched spellbook. A spellbook that hums with a power that recognizes my own, practically begging me to uncover its secrets. This wasn't just any skeleton; it was a kitchen witch, just like me, and she was murdered.

Handling the cat calling as a female police officer is one thing, being a literal cat is something else. When the world's population shifts into animals, the last thing McKenna expected was to be at the center of the controversy. Much less for her to be the star in a viral video.

And no one knows why they changed, which is scary enough.
